My father too, captured in north africa 1942, 3 1/2 years a pow, he didn t know what happened in the world for those years about the war, music etc, so he had alot of catching up to do
My name is Marie, and all my life 'men' have sung this song to me, since I was born at the end of WW 2. I was very young and didn't always know what was happening, or what singing to me meant, until I got older. Just that I happened to have the name 'Marie', like I'm sure many hundreds as well. I have met several 'Marie's'.
Very, very popular during WW2!!! I am 83 years of age and I really do remember this time in my life as my mother and aunt were jitterbugging with men in the service as well as their husbands!!! WOW! They were GREAT!! Thanks!!
Dear Miss Hazeldine, thanks Mom for keeping the country running at home while our boys young enough to be my sons went off to war. God Bless them and you.
My father danced to this song with my mother back in the 1940s. I will dance it with my wife María this October when she celebrates her 50th wedding anniversary. At our Golden Weddings.
at a time of black and white and nothing in between and concurrent with a war for the ages...and along came the backdrop of the most beautiful music ever written...and there we were...
I’m still at a really young age, (under the age of 20) but I can say I sort of grew up with this music. My parents owned a 1925 victrola and had all kinds of Tommy Dorsey and Glenn Miller records. I heard them using that thing all the time when I was little. Now I know how to use it so I can use whenever I want
Peter Farrar:- Irving Berlin's delightful & enchanting romantic ballad "Marie," enticingly & covertly casts it's magnetic Web to lure romantics into experiencing the unique & addictive explosive sensation of the liaison of love & romance. Multi talented Tommy Dorsey with his golden trombone & his superb swing & jazz orchestra elevated this musical episode to supreme heavenly heights. Golden words with suspicion that master musical genius Irving Berlin, once upon a time Very long ago, knew a girl named 'Marie.' Words by a real romantic, Peter E. Farrar.

I often come back to this when I am in a bad mood. It never fails to make me feel better, whether it's Tommy's breathtaking talent, Stuart Foster's voice or Janet Blair's hilarious comedic dancing, I always leave this video with a big smile in my heart. Thanks for posting this one. 💙😊
My Mother's name was Marie. Dad had a tremendous collection of big band and jazz records from the 20's, 30's 40's and later. Born in1937 I grew up listening to those great sounds. I heard Marie many times..Still love it. ❤😊
Marie, the sun in the morn, the moon by night, one of the most lovely of all the lady names. My mother’s dear friend, though afflicted by polio , was the most beautiful positive uplifting person, her name, Marie.
This is my favorite song because it seems to evoke what the atmosphere and milieu of the time was like, as if I had lived back then. And the music is beautiful with its fresh excitement and joie de vivre!
By goodness, what touching happy memories this version gives me. My wife and I learnt to quick-step to this at Molly Dodds school of dancing at Shepshed, Leicestershire, England in 1952. Many, many thanks.
GRANDE E UNICO TOMM DORSEY........HO TUTTI I SUOI DISCHI..... HO SEMPRE STUDIATO ASCOLTANDO IL SUO INCONFONDIBILE SWING ....TROMBONISTA SALVATORE MONACA....
This movie was fabulously unreal.I knew a man who was on the Dorsey Brothers Orchestra in 1934 and '35 then stayed on after TD left the band in May of '35.His name was Skeets Herfurt.He stayed on after Jimmy Dorsey took the band over then left Jimmy in the summer of 1937 to play for Tommy until 1939.He joined Alvino Rey in 1939 playing lead alto sax as he did for Tommy.Skeets was with Rey until 1942 when he entered the Army and Rey joined the Navy around the same time.Skeets later became a noted studio reedman in Hollywood.He died in 1992 at the age of 80.He would have been 81 on 28 May of that year.
I have heard that the sackbut (the trombone's ancestor) was used to accompany vocal ensembles, so absolutely! Any good trombonist can, though perhaps not always as well as Dorsey does.
My Dad's B-17 in WW2 had a portrait quality picture of a beautiful blonde babe painted on the nose,with the name Marie under it.He said it was a play on this song. Originally the painting was nude,but some general who earned his paycheck flying a desk,made the men paint all the nude nose art in the bomb group with swimsuits .Political correctness back then,even in the middle of a war !
I recently learned on finding my Biologial father, that he named me after this song, 59 years ago, his favourite band. I carried this gift through life, and never knew. It was a Magical meeting on Anzac Day all round. he is 80yrs old.
The Trumpet section did a wonderful and fitting tribute to Bunny Berigan, with this scored version of his original off the cuff fabulous solo in this song.
@@bethbartlett5692 Sinatra had a great voice and learnt from Dorsey circular breathing which allowed him to sing/play long phrases non-stop. I'm a Virgo and only give honest opinions.

@@bobboscarato1313 Like you, I'm both a Virgo and a huge fan of Dorsey and Sinatra. I couldn't agree more with your point about Dorsey influencing Sinatra.

I first heard this song at a coffee shop in the fifties. Big band music was huge in coffee shop ambience and I bloody miss it. The version I heard a thousand times was an instrumental version and I never grew tired of it. I am still searching for the chorus (band singing) lyrics.
Une de mes chansons préférées d'Irving Berlin. Voir aussi La version de Louis Armstrong et des Mills Brothers. One of my prefered songs of Irving Berlin. Look also for the version by Louis Armstrong and the Mills Brothers.
My dad loved this song and he used it as his theme song for his band back in the 50's in the club he owned. Every time I hear this I think of my singing this to my mother. She was an awesome dancer & taught me how to
What a great movie! As a former trombonist I used to listen to this movie a lot. Dorsey is just unbelievable! My trombone teacher, Bill Grande, played with Dorsey and a number of other big bands. He told me that Sinatra grew as a singer learning how to sing like Dorsey played the trombone. Great video. Thanks for posting!
For those of you that are curious, Tommy played a series of trombone makes; Conn, Martin, Reynolds, but he mostly played a King 2B special order for him with a gold/Silvertone finish for a number of years prior to his death.
Jassbone In this particular recording, he's playing his King. If you watch his Song of India video, he's playing it there too. You can tell because of the curved slide brace and the very sharp enpiece on the crook. As well as possibly the sound. Kings have an extremely distinct sound.
@Gavin Rice I swear it sounds like velvet. I wouldn't want it in the Berlioz or Verdi Requiems but it is the most attractive trombone I've ever heard, almost like a beefier cor angelis.
Alan Hunter Let's pursue this a little further. The song speaks of the tenderness of the night before and Marie "surrenders". There's no hint of coercion, no hint of force. It sounds like a seduction. It sounds as if she's romantically carried away. To impute rape to the guy (completely unmentioned) has no basis but your bias - and a complete indifference to the presumption of innocence. So why not enjoy the music and save your prejudices for elsewhere? I write this without any sympathy for coercive sex but quite a lot both for the music of that era and for the principle that people (even men) are innocent until proven guilty.
Sam Kaplan Date rape? Alan Hunter are you nuts? My wife's name is Marie and I was thrilled to find it on you tube, it reminds me of her. Thank you Sam for posting this wonderful song. There is always one in the crowd. A song from my Granny's time about date rape, from a time when true romance still existed. Alan come out of the street before you get run over.
I like this song too, I even sing it, but the seduction techniques of yesteryear, are at times questionable, and certainly unacceptable in todays climate, it is after all a song about a girl regretting getting screwed and the implication that she wasn't exactly an altogether willing participant and seducer exhibits an air of triumphalism. Date rape in Grannies time was probably as prevalent as today, and has been since we were apes. This romantic view of he past is crap. I did qualify it with "probably" and I stand by my assertion that it is questionable. Another song that I actually call the Date Rape song is from "Grease" "Summer Nights" "did she put up a fight", need I go on, there are several popular songs in this category, which you can find yourself. By the way I am 70 years old so I have accumulated a bit of savvy.
The LeBaron family sponsored the Tommy Dorsey show; Tommy and his drummer, Louis Bellson, paid a visit to the LeBaron home at 33 Fair Street, Grand Rapids, Michigan; this was the high light of Johnny's high school career. Roger Plafkin-Plafkin Farms, Ada, Michigan
It was always said that if Tommy was jammin and Jack Teagarden came to sit in, Tommy would put his horn in it's case, close the lid then sit and listen. Tommy was really good but not the greatest.

Dorsey turned the trombone into a singing instrument. Marvelous breathing control.
No kidding! I'm amazed!!! How did he do it?!
Used circular breathing.
@@bobboscarato1313 Really? On a trombone? It's such a large instrument, that seems impossible!
Frank Sinatra said he learned breath control by studying Dorsey’s breathing.
Sinatra learned how to use breathing techniques from watch Dorsey play his trumpet which help Sinatra with his singing style

Read it on Twitter some moths ago. Try International Trombone Society, they might have reference to this too.
